Entrance of the Luxor Temple

In front of the temple are statues of Ramses II and an obelisk

The 25m obelisk is made from pink granite from Aswan Quarry

Originally a pair, the other one is now in Place de la Concorde in Paris.

Out of the 6 sitting and 2 standing statues of Ramses II, only 2 are still sitting and one is standing on the furthest right.

The right one is faceless

There is a head on the floor but it won't fit on the right statue

Ivy and Rosanna, a couple of Canadian HongKongese I met during this boring temple trip. Wait a minute?! They have a private guide!... can I er.. tag along?

14th century Mosque of Abu al-Haggag. The entrance is on the other side.
